power base and that the base is connected to
a functioning electrical outlet.
· Make sure the minimum amount of water is in
the kettle. If the kettle cannot detect liquid, the
internal safety mechanism will automatically
turn the kettle o. However, the power switch
will not automatically return to the OFF
position. Remove the kettle from the power
base and fill with at least 3 cups of water then
return to the power base. The kettle will begin
working again once the internal temperature
has dropped to a safe level.
· Water or debris on the bottom of the kettle
or on the power base may interfere with the
functioning of the kettle. Be sure that the base
of the kettle and the power base are dry and
free of debris.
There are mineral deposits on the interior of the
kettle.
· A certain amount of scale build-up is normal
after use and is caused by minerals contained
in hard water. To remove deposits, refer to
"Mineral Deposits" on page 8.
